College of Arms Busy
“Business at the College of Arms, I hear, continues to oe brisk,” says “Peterborough” in the “Daily Telegraph” of July 29. "There are various reasons for this. Large industrial concerns—including the nationalised industries—have been taking out coats of arms. Many boroughs have been adjusting arms to which they were not entitled. Also various Anglican missionary bishops have been asked to regularise the arms of their sefes. Again, many families who have not previously appeared in Burke's Landed Gentry are now taking out coats.”
